Medicinal chemistry strategies towards the development of non-covalent SARS-CoV-2 Mpro inhibitors

扫码查看
The main protease(Mpro)of SARS-CoV-2 is an attractive target in anti-COVID-19 therapy for its high conservation and major role in the virus life cycle.The covalent Mpro inhibitor nirmatrelvir(in combination with ritonavir,a pharmacokinetic enhancer)and the non-covalent inhibitor ensitrelvir have shown efficacy in clinical trials and have been approved for therapeutic use.Effective antiviral drugs are needed to fight the pandemic,while non-covalent Mpro inhibitors could be promising alternatives due to their high selectivity and favorable druggability.Numerous non-covalent Mpro inhibitors with desirable properties have been developed based on available crystal structures of Mpro.In this article,we describe medicinal chemistry strategies applied for the discovery and optimization of non-covalent Mpro inhibitors,followed by a general overview and critical analysis of the available information.Prospective viewpoints and insights into current strategies for the development of non-covalent Mpro inhibitors are also discussed.
